A Sale That is q Success .

Not every Summer Sale announcement is
enough to bring customers or to move goods
but this much can be said that II. j. Giller
never yet announced summer sale thai
WAS not successful. The reason Is that q
complete stock offered according TO announce
ment at q reduced rate will do the work Of
moving goods, and this has been the rule at
Gillen's. SO now since the regular summer
sale is in progress, seasonable goods are NOV
ing rapidly and the public getting bargains
daily. Though the sale has been going on
for some time and immense piles Of goods
have been sold at reduced prices, as good
bargains yet reRain as any heretofore given;
and it will pay al to take advantage Of the
reductions made there every day now.
